Raybestos PGD1412C Disc Brake Pad Set - Front

Overview

Raybestos Element3 Ceramic disc brake pad set, part number PGD1412C, is built for front brake service on select Volvo applications. It uses ceramic friction material with integrally molded attachment and included shims for a quieter, more controlled brake feel.

Compatible with Volvo XC60 and Volvo XC90 front brake applications, PGD1412C is a fitment-based replacement for drivers looking for a ceramic pad set with a direct-service design. The Raybestos PGD1412C part number is also useful when cross-checking replacement options for the same application.

Key Features

• Ceramic friction material for consistent braking performance.
• Integrally molded friction material attachment for stable pad construction.
• Included shims help reduce brake noise and vibration.
• Unslotted pad design with no chamfered edges.
• Clipped shim attachment with shims already attached.

Detailed Description

The Raybestos Element3 Ceramic PGD1412C is a disc brake pad set engineered around the D1412-8525 FMSI profile. It is designed for front brake fitments on the Volvo XC60 and Volvo XC90, including 2011-2014 Volvo XC60 front, 2015 Volvo XC60 front, 2010-2011 Volvo XC90 front, and 2012-2014 Volvo XC90 front applications with the listed rotor specifications. The Raybestos PGD1412C combines ceramic friction material with attached shims to support smoother operation and a more refined brake interface.

Element3 Ceramic is Raybestos' ceramic-focused product line, aimed at replacement brake pads that emphasize controlled friction characteristics and noise management. This makes PGD1412C a practical choice when replacing front disc brake pads on Volvo XC60 or Volvo XC90 models that match the listed fitment details.

What It Is Used For

• Replacing worn front disc brake pads on listed Volvo applications.
• Addressing brake noise caused by pad wear or degraded shim material.
• Restoring braking response when pad friction material is near service limit.
• Correcting uneven pad contact related to pad construction wear.
• Servicing vehicles that require the specified FMSI pad profile.

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rotor diameter and brake system details before ordering, especially on Volvo XC90 applications with rotor-size notes. Confirm the FMSI profile, pad dimensions, and front position match the vehicle before installation. Because mounting hardware is not listed as included, reuse or replacement hardware should be verified separately during brake service.

Quality Assurance

Raybestos Element3 Ceramic brake pads are built as a focused replacement line for controlled friction and noise management. Part number PGD1412C should be matched to the exact fitment details shown for the Volvo XC60 and Volvo XC90 applications.
